He got into his car. His dark eyes are increasingly taking on an angry look, an anger dictated by sadness.

Anger. Sadness. The situation is getting out of hand.

The hungry lions have left the cage.

He starts wandering around without a destination.

The city is lit up and animated. Men with 24-hour briefcase shake hands. Designer youths sip aperitifs in front of the Sparks. Young girls take group selfies. A homeless man lies down on the bench under the bus shelter covering himself with pages of newspaper.

Noah drives aimlessly and nervously. Everything is so irritating! His clenched teeth cause him repeated involuntary jaw movements.

Now he takes a side road that leads him into a long, dark road framed on both sides by a forest. The car's headlights illuminate the majestic trees that line it. The windscreen wipers with their timed movements sweep the water off the windscreen.

Unexpectedly, a girl dressed in white emerges from the woods and splashes into the middle of the road. Noah powerfully presses the brake pedal, but his speed is too high and the girl is still in the middle of the road terrified. She kneels on the ground, covering her face with her hands.

There is no time to think of another solution: he swerves sharply to avoid hitting her and the car loses control. The jarring spin proceeds the violent crash into a tree.

The constant sound of a horn echoes in the air.
